ATLANTA -- Georgia coach Kirby Smart knows everyone is worried about how his team will recover from a heartbreaking overtime loss to Alabama in the College Football Playoff National Championship last season, but he insists that the defeat hasn't haunted his offseason.
"Everyone wants to talk about that question," Smart said at SEC media days on Tuesday. "It's not like I have nightmares about it, no. I think we grow from it. The entire season was a learning experience, a confidence builder."
